“Dr. Kong was very personable, professional and thorough. He explained everything in layman's terms rather than medical jargon which was greatly appreciated. The staff was very friendly as well. Even though his office is a two plus hour drive from home, well worth the trip.”

“Dr. Wesley Kong has been very supportive and cautious with my care. He has a personable attitude, understands the sensitivities and need for discreetness given his area of practice, takes a wholistic view of treatment (eg. proposing positive lifestyle changes as a first line of defense, adopting minimally invasive/non-habit forming treatments as much as possible, providing counseling, separating medical/urological conditions from psychological ones etc.), has been open minded to non-pharmaceutical treatments, has deep knowledge of his area of expertise, and is able to communicate complexity in an easy-to-understand manner. I'm glad to have Dr. Kong as my care provider in this context and will continue to see him. One point of concern is that appointments with him often get rescheduled, in some cases with relatively short notice (only a couple of hours at times). His office could be more communicative in this regard.”

Put me at ease, listened to my problem and offered a solution that was workable. I'd recommend using his services again.
It was pretty good, Dr. Kong was considerate and explained the problem properly. Would recommend him to others.

I was never contacted about an appointment change. The office rescheduled my appointment without my knowledge. I work Monday-Friday 8am-5pm. I made the appointment on a Saturday so I wouldn’t have any issues.

Fantastic visit! Dr. Kong was very kind and lighthearted. He got straight to the point and suggested treatments that I didn't know about. Looking forward to visiting again.
Video visit
i dont know why here all good reviews,it doesnt seem true.i see a bad review left by a female on other website but it seem gone?i regret see this doctor for stone,he's sarcastic,arrogant,didnt offer any solution ,there's no medicine given,no treatment,no follow up at all?and it was so hot in summer,a little far away from my home to see him in morning because i cant wake up,but they dont care about that distance,schedule,or anything. the front staff is very rude and inpatient,get angry just think about this dr and office.
It was a zoom appointment so it was very efficient. I had answers to all my questions within ten minutes. I thought he did a great job and was personable.

Dr Kong knows his stuff and is very matter of fact. A professional in every respect - on top of that he has a great personality. Highly recommend Dr Kong!
Verified patient
I was pretty nervous walking into Dr. Kong's office. I had no idea what to expect or if something was wrong with me. The office staff was stellar and pleasant, making the new patient process smooth and painless. I was called in and taken to a room in the back. I waited for about 5 minutes for Dr. Kong. Right when he walked in, he was super friendly and set me at ease. He didn't make it awkward or leave me questioning things at all. He was thorough with his explanation and was very relatable. Highly recommend Dr. Kong if you need to check on your man-parts!
Dr. Kong was very understanding. He asked me quite a few questions and seemed confident in recommendation. I'll wait and see how it works out, but it was a promising consultation.
Very professional and kind.
Dr Kong was really nice and had seen my issue before. He immediately knew how to deal with it. I am excited about getting my issue fixed.
Excellent doctor.
Verified patient
Dr. Kong was very friendly as well as patient with me in listening to my concerns. He addressed each one and answered any follow-up questions that arose, even when my time had gone beyond the appointed amount. I regret only having had gone to another Urologist first.
Dr. Kong was ridiculously great. I was scared of going to see an urologist in the beginning, but within 1 minute I was comfortable speaking to him as if I had known him for years. He is very knowledgeable and a great doctor. Would highly recommend him, and am looking forward to his next visit.

DR. KONG IS AMAZING!!!! Dr. Kong diagnosed something that I have had a chronic problem with. I left with a physical therapists information, and a referral. I love Dr. Kong, and would recommend him to anyone. THANK YOU DR. KONG!!!!
Verified patient
Not very patient.
This was my first time seeing Dr. Kong and I couldn't have been happier after my visit. He carefully listened to my symptoms, concerns, and previous attempts at diagnosing my problem. He then explained his prevailing theories with the rationale behind each one and the corresponding treatments. I felt that Dr. Kong was legitimately interested in my well being and never once felt rushed during my visit. I begin treatment shortly and am optimistic about my two-month follow up appointment. I would recommend Dr. Kong to anyone with urological concerns. Note: If this is your first visit, make sure to leave some time (approx. 30 min) to fill out paperwork and give a urine sample. I didn't realize there was so much to do upon arrival, but the admin. staff walked me through the process.
Dr Kong was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. He made me feel comfortable discussing some rather difficult subjects, and helped me understand what was going on. I would highly recommend!
Dr. Kong was awesome! Obviously, it's not the easiest kind of doctor to go to, but he was really casual about everything and made me feel comfortable with questions and concerns. I came from SF down to MV to see him, and the commute was more than worth it. He gave me easy instructions to follow and didn't try to swindle me into more visits when none were necessary.
Extremely knowledgeable doctor. Was able to identify solve an issue that several other urologists were not able to help with.
Good. As a first patient, be sure to bring your actual insurance card, not just the account info (they need to have the mailing address on the back) - since I didn't have the card (just my account # & plan ID), this slowed things down for me and caused a longer wait than would be usual before seeing the doctor - not their fault - mine.
Dr Wesley Kong struck me as a knowledgeable person in his field and was very balanced in the way he explained things - no fear mongering or dumbing down. He did not presume to know it all and separated the facts from his opinion of the case. This was my first visit which I left with a very favorable impression.

It was great very informative...
